The Giant Tortoise Rock Terrace rose silently and rapidly, and slid down the mountain for thousands of meters in a more inhospitable direction: Hao Ren didn't want his actions to lead people to the cave where Nolan was hiding.He found that the ship's acceleration was much slower than expected, and it lacked fluidity, which confirmed his suspicion that this was not the real Giant Turtle Rock.It was just a very similar ship in appearance that had been simulated by some kind of huge program according to his memories, and since the ghost energy equipment made by the Xiling Empire was something incomprehensible to mortal civilization, the core part of the ship was completely fictional, and it could not go beyond the knowledge base of the simulation program itself."
Do you really think we'll make it to the border?"
The data terminal watched the spacecraft accelerate out of the atmosphere in an awkward manner, and couldn't help but mutter, "Will the controllers behind this world allow someone to explore the boundaries of the stage?"
”"It may be stopped by someone, or encountered some other obstruction," Hao Ren nodded, "Even if the world is controlled by a pure program, it should have some kind of self-protection mechanism, which will definitely prevent data overflow."
But before that, we can also observe the 'discord' part of this world. ”The corpse Ji let out a sigh and asked curiously, "What do you think is the essence of this world?"
”"Maybe it's some kind of computer program, virtual world or something," Hao Ren said casually, after knowing the falsity of the world, he immediately had this conjecture, and there are many similar speculations, "the program said" is the most reliable one, "The reset process of the world, and the details mentioned in Nolan's memory, these are very similar to the characteristics of the virtual world."
And the state of the Giant Tortoise Rock and the Spectral Pistol also corroborate this. ”"The spaceship we're on now is virtual, so where is the real Giant Turtle Rock?"
The corpse terminal asked a very critical question, "Still in your personal space?"
”Hao Ren waved his hand: "No, I have confirmed, there is no spaceship in the carry-on space."
But I suspect that I haven't opened my personal space all the time - to open my mind, we are now in a virtual world, everything we experience here is actually isolated from reality, and the matter of 'opening the personal space and taking things out' is probably just a process that happened in my mind.Do you remember the first time we went back from Zom and found that the mercenary card could not be brought out, and the dirty clothes were in good condition?
Because all processes are programmed......
Although we can't find the interface of the program in this at all. ”The corpse queen terminal oh again, and then continued to sit on the console in a daze: her original position on the ship was the slot on the console, but now she can't get in, and she has nothing to do, so she has to sit on her own slot and pretend that she is useful.Hao Ren looked at such a terminal, and couldn't help but show a thoughtful look, probably because this expression was too obvious, and the latter couldn't help but glance at him: "What do you want?"
”"I probably understand what's going on with you," Hao Ren pointed to the other party's body, "like why you became like this." ”The terminal's eyes lit up suddenly: "Why?"
”"Didn't I say that the world can only simulate what it can understand, because its simulation function is a program, and the program is rigid.It can't understand my ghost pistol, so it simulates a pirated product that can return bullets, and it can't understand the principle of the Giant Tortoise Rock Stage, so it simulates a messy shell," Hao Ren pointed to the terminal, "In the same way, it can't understand what a lively PDA is, full of ideas and louder than people......"
The corpse Ji terminal stared, and her expression stiffened and lowered her head and touched herself: "......
"I guess there has never been an artificial intelligence of your level in this world, or even if artificial intelligence appears, it is different from you, so the simulation program of this world is blinded," Hao Ren rolled his eyelids, "Maybe it is determined by scanning the soul to determine the appearance of the individual, your brain is too human, the world will simulate you as a human, but you are an inorganic thing, the world will simulate you as a dead person, plus you will never be quiet, so the world will not stop when you die.........
Looking at the blonde girl's stunned appearance, Hao Ren said the last sentence slowly: "I guessed all of the above, but I don't think you can come up with a more reliable guess than this, so this process is the only explanation at present." ”The terminal suddenly jumped down from the console: "Then why was the machine chosen such a shape?!"
Isn't it okay to have another image?
”"You ask me, I'll ask who to go," Hao Ren rolled his eyes at the sky, "It's probably the system's default emoji?"
”As he said this, an idea suddenly popped into him: "Maybe it's because you're really like this at the soul level...... it!
”The terminal was frightened by this "": "What are you doing!?"
”Hao Ren glared at the other party: "You are really a waste of such an image!"
Can't you have a better personality?
”Terminal: "......
So what the hell are you talking about?
”Hao Ren waved his hand and turned around, no longer paying attention to the unbelievable mess of the PDA, and instead focused on observing the situation outside the spaceship.He is still very confident in his own speculation, although he has not been able to understand the true laws of this world at present, but he has determined the "simulation" mechanism of this world through the test of the ghost pistol and the observation of the giant turtle rock, so the mutation of the data terminal is not a takeaway at all, but a complete "change of image", only due to the imperfection of the simulation function of this world, PDA has become a dead girl.At present, it seems that the data terminal is the most seriously mutated of all his tools, even the giant tortoise rock platform, which has become an abstract maze inside, is not as seriously mutated as the terminal that has turned into a human form.Hao Ren guessed that this probably had something to do with the high personification of the terminal: a living soul that is more complex than any high-tech.Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little awkward, and couldn't help muttering to himself: "Tools......"
Usually when he quarrels with the data terminal, he can't help but treat the other party as a human - otherwise he would not be able to quarrel with a PDA so seriously, but after entering this world, the terminal is obviously used as a tool by the judgment mechanism of this world.Although it is simulated in the form of a human being, the process of "simulating" itself implies the inhuman nature of the simulated thing, because "human" does not need to be simulated here.The terminal's babbling voice sounded next to it: "What are you talking about?"
”Hao Ren said casually: "Do you say that you are a tool or a human?"
”As soon as he said it, he felt that this topic was a little inappropriate, and it seemed that he was asking too directly, but he didn't expect the terminal to care at all: "Is there a difference?"
The Xiling God Department does not study this, because everything in the world is a part of the empire.But if you have to dwell on it......
This machine is a proper tool, a precision tool!
The most awesome kind!
”Hearing this thing so proudly declare that he was a tool, Hao Ren slapped his head: "I knew it was a waste of feelings to worry about you." ”At this time, the terminal's attention has shifted to the outside of the spaceship, although this half-hung "Giant Tortoise Rock" is running all kinds of strange, but it at least really has the ability to fly into space, and now the spaceship is in the vast universe, and the Zhuom Star is outside the spaceship's starry sky, the terminal thoughtfully: "I originally thought that this world would take some more active defensive means......
For example, our spacecraft are not allowed to take off at all, or even worse, all aircraft can only operate in the atmosphere. ”"Since I have successfully flown out of the atmosphere, this confirms my guess," Hao Ren nodded slightly, "There is a big premise for the virtual scene of this world. ”"What premise?""
It must conform to the laws of nature, it must be 'real' enough," Hao Ren pointed to the planet Zhuo Am that is getting farther and farther away, "In order to improve the 'reality' of this world, some kind of program must completely restore all the details of the natural world, since there is a sky, there must be a means to reach the sky, since there is a universe, then the spaceship must be usable."
It can use meteorites or natural disasters to stop humans from launching ships, but it can't make a non-existent natural law that invalidates the ship's principle - because there is no such natural law in the real universe, it can't make it. ”"Well, that makes sense, but we don't seem to have encountered even the slightest obstacle in the air," the terminal was a little puzzled, "Is this world just letting us explore the frontier?"
”Hao Ren frowned slightly: "I'm also wondering......
But don't worry about it for now, just keep moving forward, let's see if there is an end to this dream!
”The terminal raised his hand and pointed to the image coming from the external monitor: "Perhaps......
That's the end over there. ”(To be continued.) )
